Minister of Commerce Zhong Shan in the Press Conference of NPC
In one press conference of the Fifth Session of the 12th National People's Congress held on the afternoon of March 11, the Minister of Commerce Zhong Shan answered questions raised by journalists, and introduced that during recent years domestic consumption maintained a double-digit growth, but meanwhile great efforts should be made to overcome some shorts arising from the constant expansion of domestic demand. He said:
First, we’ll expand effective supply to ensure people are satisfied with purchase.
Second, we will enhance the quality of supply to let people buy the rest assured.
In
recent 3 years, we have investigated more than 1 million cases involved
with IPR infringement and counterfeiting and punished 80,000 persons.
Such a great effort acted as a strong deterrent to IPR Infringement and
Counterfeiting. In the next step, we’ll further intensify our efforts to
build a more secure consumption environment.
Third, we will decrease the logistic cost to make people buy affordable goods.
Fourth, we will promote the logistic innovation to make people purchase conveniently.
In a word, our goal is to further release the potential of domestic consumption, and strengthen the role of consumption in pushing economic growth.
